| Ellie Goulding Lights | 2.0 |
| Ellie Goulding has such a unique voice, and her strength is the delicacy and the quiver with which she delivers her lyrics. Pairing up her voice with fast paced electronic beats just doesn't work, not to mention that the instrumentation on this album seems like a b-rate 80's new wave band. |
